Foosball anyone?

Introducing you to the sickest thing I’ve seen all day, the 11 The Beautiful Game foosball table. This piece of equipment has been in the works for three years by Dutch design team GRO Design and each unit ordered takes 12 weeks of meticulous handcrafting to build, so you know it’s got to be legit.

Subbuteo: A History

After seeing the trailer for Subbuteopia, I kind of generated a 24 hour obsession with Subbuteo boxes. Here are some of the best, and worst of all time. The individual team boxes from the 70s are my favourties.

Umbro asked this question on twitter last week, chose the best 100 and made them into a graphic for a L.E. tee.

Fantastique Away Shirt

The new France Away kit is seen for the first time in photography shot by a true icon of the fashion and photography world, Karl Lagerfeld. The photo, which captures the revolutionary elegance of the away kit, features Alou Diarra, one of the faces of the new era of the French team. And it looks amazing.

Maritime Museum Project with Kin Design: Midway stage

As part of my studio project, we have been working in small groups to a brief created by the Greenwich Maritime Museum and Kin Design. This is to create a travelling exhibit that communicates the use of longitude to children aged 8-11. 



We created this longitude game based on using a canopy and crawling under this in a grid system, moving a ball from north to south as directed by the captain.


The player will crawl underneath the canopy under direction of where the ball is by the captain.



The floor is navigated by using the ultraviolet watch, that shows the degrees of longitude. The ball can be moved by pushing it from square to square.


As part of the brief, all the equipment must pack away into a 1x1x1 box.
